Written question asked by John Healey (Labour) on Friday, 13 October 2023, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Tuesday, 17 October 2023. It was answered by Andrew Murrison (Conservative) on Monday, 23 October 2023 on behalf of the Ministry of Defence.
Combined Cadet Force
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many schools the Combined Cadet Force worked with in 2010.
- Answer
-
Combined Cadet Force (CCF) contingents across the UK in the independent and state sectors:
Year
Number of Schools
2010
256
2023
536
The growth in the number of schools with CCF contingents has been due to the joint Ministry of Defence/Department for Education Cadet Expansion Programme (CEP) which was launched by the Government in 2012. Before the CEP, 75% of CCF units were in independent schools. CEP has prioritised schools in less affluent areas and now over 60% of CCFs are in state schools.
